A Person Who Has Made a Difference: Ichiro

     Ichiro changed the other baseball players ideas about MLB ( Major League Baseball). Ichro is the best Japanese baseball player. He played in Orix, one of  the Japanese teams and made so many greate records in the history of Japanese baseball  there. He was very famous in Japan. About 10 years ago, he tried to play in MLB because that was his one of dreams.  Many people worried about that because it was thought that Japanese batters could not stand well in MLB then. However, he went to MLB and joined the Seattle Mariners. Many Japanese and American people thought he would not succeed there, but  then he played so well and also made his great records there. Everyone was surprised by his activity.  He became famous in the world. This fact gave hope to other Japanese baseball players and Japanese children who want to be baseball players. Now, some Japanese players are playing in the MBL. Of course, he is also playing. He is continuing to play well and make his great records with the Seattle Mariners. Many people expect him to make next great records. However, he says, "My next goal is just a next hit. It's so far for me to achieve that everybody expects to me."
